well, i'm going to be attempting
miracles -- 14:17 PDT -- 28.086757 -082.459400
the acme link for it puts it right at the edge of the street, but if you head due east, you reach the entrance for albertsons, where there are two payphones that accept incoming calls. i scouted it out and tested the phones at lunch. there also don't seem to be any other phones in the area, at least on that side of the street.

i'm rather sure there are some others across the street near the blockbuster, but i didn't check as i was pressed for time. if i don't make it and someone else does, note that the albertsons phones have INCREDIBLY QUIET ringers. i was standing right next to it and had a hard time hearing it when i called it from my cellphone.

if i get there and they don't ring i'll check across the street for more phones and report back.

I activated the one that works in Madison, and it is definitely more of the same stuff. More details later

I wish I had been able to activate the Ft. Lauderdale, FL, axon. I was unable to locate a working phone after 2 trip down there. Oh well, 2 hours round trip was a long time to drive just to pick up a phone. Too bad nobody lived closer

Report from Virgina Beach [Dude 6:37]
This was my second axon, the first was same location from first set of axons [hey soilder]
Unlike the first time I was the only one there today. Upon awnsering the phone Mellisa sounded like she was "glitching" finally she was able to say that she was unsure if she could trust me and asked me her real name.
I had to say "Melissa" almost 8 times befroe she said "ok". She then played the clip. I dont want to write to much about the clip cause if I somehow remered something wrong I know I'm gonna get slamed. It was a conversation between 2 young men (20's?) One was possibly a cop. Has to do with one of them pressing a button that had every cop in the area respond to a certain location, but he did it as a diversion for something. And his buddy, the cop? was kinda pissed he did it. Then they started talking about someone, I think a girl bringin over some leftovers.
Sorry I couldnt record it or write it down, but I barley made it in time once I saw the new axons this morning. The call ended with the operator sounding more "confused" and "desperate" and the weird i love bees, bees clip.

EDIT. having now heardthe red clip, it makes a lot in dude make sense. Niether person in dude is a cop. It's aiden and kamal.

Kudos to whoever hit the 10:33 curious_girl in New York. I was at the Greene & 4th phones, but they never rang - where is that phone, anyway?

Anybody have plans for the 13:37 shock_sticks? It maps to 10th St & 5th, and Verizon's wifi lookup shows a phone between 10th & 11th on 5th. I'm not sure if I can sneak out of work again today, but I'll try to hit it tomorrow if it's not hot by then.

OK, I've been pointed here to post reports of visiting the axons as well as coordination, so here we go.

9:29 PDT code_nothing HOT. This site was previously a dud and was cancelled in round 1 (11:53). The payphone-directory had the wrong phone# and it never rang.
Soo, I posted the correct phone# here and sent the correct # to the payphone-directory (where it was also updated by the webmaster there), and today it rang.

Melissa's watching us guys.

So, if you have axons that are wrong and you can prove it, do so. If there is a next round, it will be an easy "hot".

OK, reporting what happened:

Melissa states that she doesn't know how long she can keep this communication working, then goes into the normal spiel of "crewmember, what's my real name?" After responding with "Melissa" we get:

.wav file summary: (thanks Shontu!)
It was Jan talking to her "dad" James. Apparently Duane (who she's friends with… his dad had the gate pass from the first memory fragment story) came by or something. Jan doesn't really like Duane hitting on her. Jan asks her dad in a humorus/sarcastic voice "Aren't you supposed to scare guys like that away" (more or less what she said). James senses Jan wants to talk. She says its nothing, but then opens up… she says that she wishes her "dad' would talk more about his past and his "unit" (war stores and such). James is a bit uncomfortable (impression I got) about talking about his past. He asks Jan if she'd like him to be more like the "d-mobs"(?) and sit around the house all day drinking and telling stories. Jan says "yah, sometimes" (more or less).

Hope this helps. Hopefully we'll get the rest that we need tomorrow and won't need this much longer.

Also, Shontu (serious lurker, but good friend of mine) says he's got the 12:17 PDT visa covered. I'll get the 14:11PDT miracles.
